Is the Tempered Glass playing surface on my backboard covered under warranty?
The tempered glass playing surface on Lifetime backboards is not covered under warranty. While tempered glass has the advantage of providing the ultimate in rebounding performance, it is has the disadvantage of being breakable if struck with a projectile. Our tempered glass backboards are similar to a car windshield in that they are a very durable design for normal use, but if penetrated, will shatter. For this reason, we cannot warranty our tempered glass backboards because they are susceptible to vandalism.
